Discussion

Quicksilver Forums Local File Include and Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerabilities

Quicksilver Forums is prone to a local file-include vulnerability and an arbitrary-file-upload vulnerability because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker can exploit these issues to upload arbitrary files onto the webserver, execute arbitrary local files within the context of the webserver, and obtain sensitive information. By exploiting the arbitrary-file-upload and local file-include vulnerabilities at the same time, the attacker may be able to execute remote code.

Quicksilver Forums 1.4.2 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected. Note that these issues affect only versions running on Windows platforms.
